FAQS

Customs and Practices

Q I’ve heard negative things or had bad experiences in the past with spiritual schools, how do I know I’m safe?

A. Shanti Mission is unusual in that we offer all of our courses and seminars by donation. The main motivation for our teachers isn’t to make money from their work, but rather help to make the world more peaceful. We also have a very clear code of conduct that all teachers and leaders must follow, and a complaint resolution process. Finally, at Shanti Mission we are happy regardless of whether you want to study with us for a lifetime or even just once! We are a large spiritual community and many people come and go from Shanti Mission and we always welcome them back with open arms when they come to visit. We know everyone has a unique spiritual path and whether that’s studying with Shanti Mission or another school, we’re happy when people find more satisfaction and peace in their lives!

Q. Shanti Mission uses a lot of Hindu statues and music, are you a Hindu school?

A. Shanti Mission is a multi-faith spiritual organisation that studies and learns from all faiths, religions and spirituality. For example, much of our music is derived from Hindu, Christian, Buddhist and even Sufi schools. Having said this, Hinduism is very accepting of all faiths and spiritual paths and so Hindu practices and approaches, such as the devotional rituals, work very well with our own particular spiritual philosophy. At Shanti Mission we are very grateful and devotional to the Divine for all that we have been given, which is why devotion is the first pillar of our school’s eight pillars. We also get a great deal of inspiration from the oldest spiritual texts in existence, called the Vedas. These are the basis of Hinduism and were written as early as 1500 BC. We also derive teachings from the Western streams of wisdom and we teach the Egyptian system of Alchemy as well as Kabalah.

Q. Why do you have so many statues of different Hindu and Buddhist Gods around your centres and ashrams?

A. At Shanti Mission we believe there is only one God, but that God is so complex we need to look at many different aspects of the Divine to truly understand its nature. This is why there are so many deities in Hinduism and so many versions of The Buddha. We find that by studying each of these deities at Shanti Mission, which really are just different facets of the same thing, we can better understand or approach our creator. It also helps us to understand the path we need to take toward self-realisation. Each deity, whether it’s Durga or Shiva or Manjushri is part of the same, singular ‘God’ but represent different aspects such the protective mother, or consciousness, or wisdom.

Q. Who is Sri Sakthi Amma?

A. You might have noticed pictures of Amma around the ashrams or our centres or heard Amma’s name being mentioned in classes or Satsangs. Amma is an Avatar (Divine incarnation) from India and also the Guru of Shanti Mission’s founder, Shakti Durga. If you’re curious about Amma, we run regular retreats to the ashram in Southern India. Those who go on the retreats come back filled with bliss, excitement and appreciation for this amazing and humble Divine being. You can find out more on the Shanti Mission website.
